Tour de France Femmes Coverage Crisis | Sydney News

The Tour de France Femmes is delivering jaw-dropping drama with just 40 seconds separating the top three, six different stage winners, and a fan surge of 40%—yet only three of nine stages get full live coverage. Broadcasters and advocacy groups are furious, calling it a betrayal of the sport’s growing momentum, especially when contrasted with the men’s race’s complete coverage. Moments like breakaways and crashes vanish from view because cameras haven’t started rolling. Organizers say they’re seriously considering full-stage broadcasts in the future—but for now, fans can catch the final two stages on SBS. The race is electric on the road; the struggle for equal visibility off it? Still very much on. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
